# Knowledge graph

Grafana Cloud Knowledge Graph helps you troubleshoot faster by automatically discovering your services and infrastructure, generating insights about issues, and connecting metrics, logs, and traces in a unified workflow—no complex queries required.

* * *

## Overview

The knowledge graph automatically discovers your services, infrastructure, and their relationships from telemetry data you’re already sending to Grafana Cloud. It continuously generates insights that highlight saturation, errors, anomalies, failures, and configuration changes—eliminating the need to write complex PromQL queries or manually maintain alert rules.

Instead of jumping between disconnected dashboards, you get a unified view where metrics, logs, and traces are pre-filtered to the entities you’re investigating. This accelerates troubleshooting and reduces the time to resolve incidents.
